[@thenewdomtri1]

Octavio Infante Wood is well known for absorbing any bacteria that comes in contact with it. Taking one from the video, when using the wooden knife to cut the raw meat for instance, salmonella could become infused in the wood, leaving it almost impossible to get out. It’s the same reason why getting a splinter can lead to a bad infection if not removed and disinfected. Bacteria absorbed in the splinter can spread into our skin, causing the infection.

[@riuphane]

I feel like the direction of the grain of the wood relative to the edge would make a pretty big difference, especially with sharpening and splintering...I would think having the grain of the wood perpendicular to the cutting edge would be most effective and least likely to splinter and much more likely to hold an edge...just a thought...

Also did not take grain direction into consideration. Having it at certain angles may provide more "tooth" at a microscopic level. Of course that can also affect strength as well. Then combine that with fire hardening.
